| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The wording seems to suggest that creating the directory is needed and the setting of rerere.enabled is only for disabling the feature by setting it to 'false'. But the configuration is meant to be the primary control and setting it to 'true' will enable it; the rr-cache directory will be created as necessary and the user does not have to create it.

Over time, this discussion has become somewhat obsolete, both in content and formatting. In particular: 1. There are many options now, so starting the discussion with "It tests..." makes it unclear whether we are talking about the last option, or about the tool in general. Let's start a new "discussion" section and make our antecedent more clear. 2. It gave an example for --unreachable using for-each-ref to mention all of the heads, saying that it will do "a _lot_ of verification". This is hopelessly out-of-date, as giving no arguments will check much more (reflogs, the index, non-head refs). 3. It goes on to mention tests "to be added" (like tree object sorting). We now have these tests. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Introduce a "git cherry-pick --abort" command that rolls back the entire cherry-pick sequence and places the repository back on solid ground. Just like "git merge --abort", this internally uses "git reset --merge", so local changes not involved in the conflict resolution are preserved.
